ICT Skills for Teachers (Office 2016 / Office 365)
Gather information for simple research (Beginner level)
As students respond to a challenging question that you have set them, they will first discuss the question and then identify their information needs. At this stage they will identify what information they need to gather and how to process it before finally reaching some conclusion. Microsoft OneNote is an application that will make it possible for students to gather and organise information from many sources.
By the end of this scenario you will be able to:- Use Linked Note to manage sources
- Search for information
- Snip text from other sources into OneNote
- Search for images
- Capture images into OneNote
You are welcome to copy this scenario demonstration step-by-step, but ideally you should apply these skills while preparing your own learning resources.
